It was a nameless island, and on the hill in the middle of the island stood a towering tree, with countless branches and leaves at the top stretching out in all directions, perfectly shielding from any sunlight, and there were many players gathered under the tree.

When Xiangkong and his party arrived here, the sound was boiling, and a battle was going on on an empty ground under the tree.

A petite girl with straight purple-black hair pressed her opponent back frequently with a tough attitude, and the swift sword blow unleashed a large amount of dazzling light, enveloping the strong man with a strong body.

The strong man used a broadsword ten fingers wide, and he seemed powerless in the face of the girl's stormy attack, and thanks to the broadsword's wide enough blade, he was able to hold out for so long.

"Drink!"

At the last moment when the rainstorm stopped, the girl screamed, and in the dust and mist raised by the sword wind, the blade finally crossed the broadsword and stabbed into the neck of the strong man.

Pierce, retract, all in one go.

The horn that represented the end of the duel suddenly sounded.

The crowd was silent for a while, and suddenly burst into enthusiastic cheers.

"How many wins are you?"

"Sixty-eight."

"It's terrible, can't anyone stop her?"

Seeing the girl's terrifying sword speed again, Kirito sighed: "Maybe only the original people can achieve this kind of Cheng dù." With that, he glanced at the sky.

Xiangkong and Asuna, who saw the girl's strength for the first time, agreed with what Kiritto said, if you want to achieve that kind of Cheng dù, you can only do it by immersing yourself in the virtual world for a long time, so Klein and they will think that the girl is also a SAO player.

After defeating another challenger, the girl smiled widely, and made a V gesture with an innocent gesture like a child.

The strong man seemed to sit on the ground because of exhaustion, panting, and there was no frustration of defeat on his face, but a look of relief.

In order to parry the girl's attack like a rainstorm, the energy is a bit outrageous.

"Uncle, you're very good!" The girl took a few steps forward with a smile on her face, her purple-black straight hair wafting a wisp of fragrance in the wind, and she stretched out her hand to the strong man who fell to the ground.

Called uncle, the strong man touched the smooth bald head, smiled helplessly, held the girl's delicate little hand, got up with strength, and then admired: "You are really strong, I am willing to bow to the wind." ”

The dimples on either side of the girl's cheeks suddenly deepened.

"Well, is there the next person to fight?"

After the defeated bald man walked towards the crowd, the girl asked the surrounding crowd in a clear and innocent tone, it was hard to imagine that such a girl would defeat sixty-eight challengers.

Words such as you go sounded in the field, but after a long time, there was still no one in the queue, and the strength shown by the girl was enough to make most players feel powerless.

Xiangkong smiled lightly and walked into the door with a slow pace, and the noise in the crowd slowly disappeared as Xiangkong walked in front of the girl.

Seeing the girl's fierce offensive before, not only did Xiangkong have a cognition of the girl's strength, but so did Asuna, and even had a feeling that the opponent's sword was faster than his own.

Maybe it's the same woman, Asuna has a moment of arousing the will to fight, but she can't stand up as decisively as Xiangkong, and has been in a state of hesitation.

Seeing Xiangkong facing Yuki, Argo and the others who came with him looked at the center of the field with anticipation.

"Big brother, are you coming?" The girl looked at the sky.

Xiangkong nodded slightly and said with a smile: "What are the rules?" ”

The girl restrained her smile a little and said seriously, "You can use magic props as you like, but I only use this one." ”

As she spoke, she raised her arm, revealing her weapon, a one-handed double-edged sword as dark as obsidian.

Xiangkong looked at the one-handed sword in the girl's hand, the corners of his mouth outlined a curvature, and slowly pulled out the "Eternal Night", and said with a smile: "Then I will only use this." ”

The girl nodded, as if remembering something, and asked, "Does the eldest brother want to fight in the air or on foot?" ”

Xiangkong thought for a moment and said, "Let's fight on foot." ”

If it was an air battle, he didn't think anyone could win against him.

"Then it's decided."

The look on the girl's face gradually became serious, and she sent a duel application to Xiangkong, and the winning condition mode was selected as "Total Loss Mode", and the side with the first HP to zero failed.

The window quickly jumped out, and Xiangkong looked at the applicant's name, only to know that the girl's name was Yuki, and after reaching out and agreeing, an uplifting duel prelude suddenly sounded in the air.

The ten seconds of the countdown jumped out in mid-air between the two of them.

The crowd of onlookers once again cried out in anticipation.

The battle that had not been seen for a long time seemed to make the heart in his chest more and more active, and Xiangkong took a deep breath, his expression tending to be as serious as Yuki's.

"Come on."

Xiangkong's eyes focused on Yuki, his expression focused.

After the countdown reaches zero...

In the midst of many expectant eyes, neither of them moved.

Seeing that Xiangkong didn't take the lead, Yuki was slightly surprised, but he didn't think much about it, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he kicked his feet with all his strength, his body was like an arrow shooting, and the obsidian sword swept out a dazzling sword and hit Xiangkong directly, as fast as lightning and flint!

The sword came from afar, and in the blink of an eye, only by facing such a sword could you know how terrible the girl was.

"Soon, no, very fast."

Xiangkong's eyes were calm, and he raised his sword to strike obliquely, accurately blocking the sword that Yuki stabbed at him, but in an instant, Yuki's next sword was already slashed towards his neck.

Seeing this, Xiangkong took a step back, flashed the sword in a millimeter, and then immediately took a step forward, and the sword move of the horizontal cross slash was so lightly used, and the blade drew a cross light in mid-air!

Xiangkong's retreat and the excellent inertia of the connection made Yuki's eyes instantly burst with strong interest, and after she collected her sword, she also drew a reverse cross light along the trajectory of Xiangkong's blade, but it was not a sword move.

This response made Xiangkong's eyes show surprise, and he was surprised by Yuki's reaction speed and body agility.

Bang Bang!

With two sounds, the sword and the sword suddenly separated, and the wind and waves caused by it suddenly raised a large amount of smoke and dust on the spot.

Xiangkong and Yuki each retreated, holding their swords and looking at each other.

The brief confrontation caused the crowd to cry out in surprise, and words of admiration poured out like water.

"Big brother, you're very good!" Yuki's face was serious, and a look of anticipation appeared in his purple eyes.

It was the same thing that he had said to the bald man after the previous victory, but the meaning was completely different.

Soaring Sky is her sixty-ninth challenger and the strongest one to date.

"I'm here!"

Yuki let out a whimper of excitement, kicked the soles of her feet, and the dust burst and spread behind her.

The obsidian-like tip of the sword stabbed straight into the center of the sky's chest again, without the slightest feint mixed in, only with a meteor-like high speed.

This sword was faster and more fierce than the previous one, and the tip of the sword pierced the air and even caused a faint roar...

Xiangkong's eyes shrank slightly, and the sword that stabbed was reflected in his pupils, and he raised his sword again, blocking the sword that stabbed directly in the violent sound, and then inertia counterattacked a sword.

Yuki easily flashed the sword that Xiangkong seemed to have not done its best, and she deeply felt that Xiangkong was powerful, and her arm was stunned, like a clockwork that was extremely tight and suddenly loosened, and the trembling peak roared suddenly, and the storm-like stabbing was like the stamen of cosmos blooming in her hand.

The purple-black light was like a shower falling from the sky, splashing into the sky.

Such a fierce offensive is very much in the style of Asuna.

Xiangkong smiled lightly, his eyes were extremely serious at this moment, and his arm waved quickly.

The two swords met in mid-air, erupting into bursts of crashing sounds, fierce sparks bursting in the impact of the blades, and the sword wind stirred up more and more dust.

"Wow!" There was an incredulous exclamation.

The two did not back down for a moment, did not use sword skills, and only fought each other with their respective reaction speeds and sword speeds.

Countless sparks burst in the smoke and dust, and the jet-black sword light of the blade swept through it and the purple-black sword light intertwined in it, and the dust and mist stirred everywhere, and the crisp sound of impact was endless.

After fighting for a long time, Yuki's expression became more and more solemn, and she felt a sense of oppression for the first time.

"It's terrible reaction speed and sword speed, but the trajectory of the sword is too straight, if that's all it takes..."

In the fierce confrontation, Xiangkong still had the strength to observe Yuki's sword track, his eyes seemed to pass through the light curtain that stabbed over, and his eyes focused on the sword in Yuki's hand.

Suddenly, he suddenly retracted his sword and let Yuki's sword stab him, and at this moment, he took a step forward, dodged the sword sideways, and then raised his sword and struck it diagonally like thunder.

Yuki's eyes immediately shrank to the extreme, and with a very quick reaction, she forcibly stopped the sword that was stretched forward, kicked her heel on the sand, and quickly retreated, but it was still too late...

The pitch-black blade of the eternal night left a vivid scar from her lower right waist to her left chest, and her HP bar slowly dropped to the yellow zone as she pulled away with the backward tendency.

Shoku could have taken advantage of the victory to pursue, but he didn't do that because he didn't want the fight to end so quickly.

After pulling away from the distance, smoke and dust fluttered in the air, and Yuki couldn't help but be silent as he looked at the scars on his chest.

After a while, through the faint smoke and dust, she looked up at Xiangkong seriously and asked, "You too... Is it? ”

It wasn't a complete sentence, there was a pause in between, the word that should have been said drowned out in the pause, but she seemed to know that just by asking, the man on the other side would understand.

Xiangkong raised his eyebrows, his eyes showed a look of surprise, this inexplicable question, coupled with the girl's excellent reaction and movements, made him can't help but imagine that the girl is the same as him.

In the same way, Yuki also thinks that Xiangkong is terminally ill and is in the same situation as her.

She guessed right, but she was also wrong.

He guessed right, but he was also wrong.

Xiangkong didn't know how to answer, but Yuki saw the surprise in his eyes, so she naturally thought that Xiangkong was acquiescing.

Then, a beautiful pure smile appeared on the girl's face again.

"Next, I'm going to use my original sword skills!"

Yuki looked at Xiangkong, and his arms naturally raised, parallel to his shoulders.

Xiangkong smiled and silently raised "Eternal Night".

"Eleven Strikes!"

This is Yuki's biggest killer feature!

First of all...

Yuki forced Xiangkong, and the obsidian one-handed sword stabbed at Xiangkong's right shoulder, like a machine gun, drawing a dazzling tail flame in mid-air, but it was an extremely fast five-hit combo.

Boom!

Xiangkong's expression was extremely serious, and he perfectly blocked the five consecutive blows, but the attack was not over, the blade slided, and it was an extremely fast five-combo attack that stabbed Xiangkong's left shoulder.

It was as if the combo that could drain the air was pressed with a sense of suffocation.

Xiangkong subconsciously wanted to raise the shield in his left hand to block the five consecutive attacks carrying the strong wind, but suddenly realized that he had not chosen to hold the shield in the first place.

It was the pause in consciousness that caused him to lose his rhythm for a moment.

The approaching stab also came straight to the shoulder at this time, and Xiangkong hurriedly raised his sword to meet it.

There were five more crisp sounds, but at the last stab, the eternal night in Xiangkong's hand couldn't help but rise back slightly, looking as if it was repelled by a strong force.

"Drink!"

Yuki's eyes lit up, and all the strength poured into the last sword, stabbing straight into the center of Xiangkong's chest.

Xiangkong's expression did not change, his eyes seemed to light up with a touch of golden light, and when he was firing a thousand equals, he was pulling his sword back to defend at a faster speed, holding the sword in one hand, and holding the sword body with the other hand, across his chest!

Clang!

The wind suddenly rose, and the sound became particularly harsh.

Yuki's sword tip froze on the sword body of Eternal Night, and after her skill was released, all the eleven consecutive attacks were blocked, and she could only helplessly fall into a state of hard stun.

She quietly looked at the pitch-black blade of the eternal night, a look of disappointment.

Xiangkong took back the eternal night and pulled a beautiful sword flower, and then pointed a sword at Yuki's throat, and said with a smile: "You lost." ”

After a brief silence, the crowd of onlookers suddenly erupted in a tidal wave of cheers for this wonderful battle.
